Problem summary
SolidWorks files do not load materials correctly when imported via the SolidWorks Kit

Customer reported version

Modo 13.0v1

Customer reported platform
windows10

Steps to reproduce

1) Download the Modo for SolidWorks Kit - Content from the Foundry webpage, it's a free download that comes with the plug-in.

2) With Modo open and the SolidWorks Kit installed select SolidWorks>Import Raw and then select the TC_Toy Car.SLDASM file found in the content folder that was previously downloaded.

3) This dialogue will appear.

​
4) Press F8 to open the Preview Render window, the car model renders out mainly black.

Expected behaviour
For the materials to render correctly.

Actual behaviour
The rendered result is mainly black.

Workaround

Instead of importing through the SolidWorks Plug-in, drag and drop the file into Modo, then if you use the ProRender Beta available in Modo 13.0v1 the rendered output matches the colour correctly, however, the decals still won't appear.

If you plan to use ProRender Beta please check the current limitations.
